timing psql internal commands

I have just noticed that psql's \timing does not apply to internal
commnds like \copy, which surprised me a bit. Is there any reason why it
should not apply at least in the case of \copy, which after all does
real work, as opposed to to the client housekeeping and info functions
that most psql internal commands perform?

Yea, it probably should work for \copy.
